We are RIAA, resistance is...
Will we see this in every new movie - like this ads which tell us: If you will caputre any of this move, even with you 640x480 crap like mobile phone digicam, we will shot you, sue you and shot you agin!" which are displayed in the beginning of every movie since the beginning of 2004.
I guess they really miss their old chain of comerce: Make the movie, sell it in the US, sell it in Europe, wait a lot of time, rent the movie, wait, sell it on Video/DVD, wait sell it to the TV stations for a lot of money.
Here is just another bump of news concerning that. When do even the RIAA/MPAA/etc. bosses learn: If you sue the people who pay your rents (and cars, and madonna's dog and britney's tits and...) it won't help your buisseness. Don't threat your customers like criminals, make them want to buy your stuff. What you are creating is a even bigger image problem than you already have (ever listened to the comments of people while the "Hard, but fair" type ads run in the cinema? The music/movie industry has got a big image problem). All you need to do is make your customers believe taht we don't pay the design chair of a lable bosses office, when we buy the CD of our famous artist. We want to pay the artist, and give a small part of that to the people who make the cover, the hardware (eg. CD) or the ads; we don't want to give them the major part.
It is as simple as that. Why can't they hire an avarage 6th grade teenager, he would tell them whar they do wrong. Maybe they should read the "Evil Overlord's handbook".
If you want to dominate the world, then do it right!
Btw. the rest of this movie is funny to.
